The refit of the USS Oumuamua’s new operations centre is complete and finally the operations department are no longer hotdesking.
The refit provides a project management space for all departments. The centre includes the main control area called "the pit," three large project stations, consoles for minor ship operations, and offices for various purposes. The centre facilitates collaboration, coordination, and assistance for crew members with their projects and issues.
The operations centre, located on Deck 5 of the USS Oumuamua, serves as a hub for various operations-related activities. It features the main control area known as "the pit," where the Chief of Operations can issue orders and manage operations. Additionally, there are three large project stations for team collaboration, as well as consoles for minor ship operations. The centre also houses several offices, including the Chief of Operations Office with a glass window overlooking the entire centre.
The centre is designed to facilitate collaboration, coordination, and assistance for all crew members with their projects and issues.

This is also a space that other characters can use for whatever operations purpose they may need.
The operations centre is on Deck 5 and connect to the operations workshop as well as the operations office.
